The Real Reason You Must Get a Forehead Lift Along with Upper Eyelid Surgery in Your 50s (Maximizing Before-and-After Difference)[6]
hello, Director Baek In-soo of Garnet Plastic Surgery no see. As I enter middle age, whenever I look in the mirror, I notice that the skin around my eyes and the tissues on my forehead are sagging, unlike before. If your eyelids droop heavily and your eyebrows drop, it is easy to look much more tired or older than your natural appearance. In such cases, many people simply assume it is an eyelid issue and only consider upper blepharoplasty. In reality, the underlying cause is often the forehead and eyebrows sagging together. Today, let's take a closer look at an anti-aging combination that transforms dull-looking eyes into a refreshing look and effectively addresses the root causes of aging! 💡 The root cause of eyelid drooping is not the eyelid itself, but, Descent of the forehead and eyebrows It may be. Upper eyelid surgery and forehead lift Synergy combination Expect a natural and perfect anti-aging effect! 🔹 Why are upper eyelid surgery and forehead lifts a perfect match for middle-aged women? It lifts sagging eyelids and drooping eyebrows simultaneously to address the root cause of aging. So why does a synergistic effect occur when the two surgeries are performed together? It is because the upper parts of our face are closely connected to each other. 1. Solving the root cause of eyelid sagging! 📌 For middle-aged women, it is not just the skin of the eyelids that stretches; often, the eyebrows themselves droop downwards. Upper eyelid surgery completely tightens sagging eyelid skin, but it cannot lift drooping eyebrows. If a forehead lift is performed in conjunction with this, the eyebrows are lifted to a normal position, and the entire area around the eyes becomes brighter. 2. Creating a natural eye shape without artificiality ✨ If upper eyelid surgery is performed aggressively without addressing the condition of the drooping eyebrows, excessive skin may be removed, resulting in a fierce or artificial appearance of the eyes. However, if you combine it with a forehead lift, the eyebrows and eyelids are harmoniously improved, making your impression less harsh, your eyes look naturally refreshed, and your field of vision widens. 3. Smooth out even deepening forehead wrinkles! ✔️ When our eyelids droop heavily, we unconsciously raise our forehead muscles to open our eyes wider. This compensatory mechanism causes deep wrinkles to form on the forehead. A forehead lift helps significantly improve forehead wrinkles by correcting this habit of opening the eyes. 4. Transformation from a gloomy and angry impression to a bright and youthful impression 🥰 When the eyelids and eyebrows are lifted simultaneously, the dark shadows on the face disappear. If you are someone who is often misunderstood by those around you as looking sleepy, tired, angry, or depressed, you can expect a noticeably bright and vibrant youthful appearance. 5. Reduced risk of re-surgery due to unsatisfactory results! 📉 If you perform surgery on only the eyes without accounting for eyebrow sagging, the eyelids may look heavy again after a short time, and satisfaction may drop significantly. In fact, there are many cases where patients consider revision surgery due to this, but combining a forehead lift from the beginning can significantly reduce the risk of such revision surgery. 🔹 Why do people feel that upper eyelid surgery alone is not enough? This is because aging around the eyes is not just a problem of the eyelids, but a complex phenomenon in which the forehead, eyebrows, and temples change together. Many people think, "My eyelids are just sagging, so I'll just need eye surgery, right?" However, insisting on a standalone surgery often leads to some regrets. ⚠️ Eyebrow drooping could be the real cause. Even if it appears as though the eyelids are sagging, in most cases, it is actually the eyebrows pushing down and covering the skin. Since the cause lies elsewhere, simply cutting off the eyelids will not resolve the fundamental problem. ⚠️ If you cut away too much skin, it may cause discomfort. If an excessive amount of eyelid skin is removed without calculating the amount of eyebrow sagging, you may suffer after surgery from difficulty closing your eyes, a feeling of tightness in the eye area, or an unnatural, closed-off appearance. ⚠️ Forehead wrinkles and restricted vision remain. Since upper eyelid surgery thoroughly improves the eyelids themselves, it has no effect on forehead wrinkles or the position of sagging eyebrows. If eyebrow sagging is severe, surgery on the eyes alone may not provide clear vision, leading to continued functional frustration. To achieve balance across the entire upper face, you must comprehensively consider the forehead, eyebrows, eyelids, and temples to get closer to the correct answer. 🔹 What changes occur when upper eyelid surgery and a forehead lift are performed together? You can simultaneously achieve functional improvements with an unobstructed view and aesthetic effects that balance the entire face. When the two surgeries are combined, the synergy effect is doubled. The specific expected benefits are as follows: Solve functional frustrations! 💡 🔹 Improved vision and reduced eye strain: As sagging skin is lifted, your field of vision becomes clear and unobstructed, and fatigue in the muscles around the eyes is significantly reduced. 🔹 Improvement in eye-opening strength: Your eyes open comfortably without having to force them open. 🔹 Reduced use of forehead muscles: It becomes much more comfortable because you don't have to squeeze your forehead to open your eyes. Aesthetic anti-aging effect! ✨ 🔹 Clear and lively eyes: The sleepy and tired impression changes clearly. 🔹 Natural eyebrow position: The eyebrows find their proper place without looking forced, making the impression softer. 🔹 Forehead wrinkle reduction and a youthful appearance: As the compensatory action of the forehead muscles decreases, deep forehead wrinkles are naturally alleviated, giving a brighter impression. 🔹 What are the side effects you should know before becoming beautiful? Since all plastic surgeries can cause side effects depending on the individual, you must check thoroughly beforehand and make a prudent decision. For safe and satisfactory results, it is advisable to familiarize yourself with potential symptoms in advance. division Possible side effects and symptoms Side effects of upper eyelid surgery Swelling, bruising, asymmetry, and scarring, which are typically expected after surgery, may occur. Additionally, as this is a surgery involving the eye, dry eye syndrome However, initial discomfort with eye closing may occur, and overcorrection or undercorrection may occur. Forehead lift side effects surgical site Temporary loss of sensation and you may experience a pulling sensation in the scalp. As with upper eyelid surgery, swelling, bruising, asymmetry, and scarring may occur, and hair loss may develop around the incision site, or very rarely, nerve damage There is a possibility. 🔹 If you have decided on parallel surgery? Please make sure to pay attention to this! Since facial structure and the rate of aging vary from person to person, a precise, customized plan is essential. Please be sure to check the following points for successful comprehensive anti-aging. 🔍 Analysis of individual aging status is necessary — Changes in the entire upper face, including the forehead, eyebrows, eyelids, and temples, must be analyzed in three dimensions. 📐 Eyebrow position measurement is essential. You must accurately measure how far down your eyebrows are to prevent an unnatural look. ✏️ Precise plan for the amount of skin excision — A sophisticated design must be included to prevent side effects caused by excessive resection. 👨⚕️ Choosing experienced medical staff is important — As two surgeries are performed simultaneously, the expertise of a specialist with extensive anatomical knowledge determines safety. 💡 I highly recommend this to people like this! ✔ For those whose vision is usually restricted and blurry due to drooping eyelids ✔ For those whose forehead wrinkles have become particularly deep due to the habit of raising their eyebrows ✔ For those whose eyebrows droop over their eyes, making their impression look stifled ✔ Those who have been diagnosed that upper eyelid surgery alone will not be sufficient to improve the effects of aging ✔ Middle-aged women who want natural, non-artificial anti-aging effects 🔹 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Q1. Upper eyelid surgery alone would suffice; is a forehead lift absolutely necessary? A1. It is not absolutely necessary. However, if the underlying cause of eyelid drooping is 'eyebrow descent,' satisfaction may be lower if only upper eyelid surgery is performed, so performing a forehead lift together can lead to much more natural and complete results. Q2. If I have two surgeries at the same time, will the recovery period become extremely long? A2. Swelling and bruising may last a little longer in the initial stages compared to performing only one surgery. However, there is an advantage in being able to improve both the eyes and forehead in a single recovery process, rather than undergoing two separate recovery periods for each surgery. Q3. If I get a forehead lift, won't my eyes be lifted too high and make me look fierce? A3. By precisely considering your individual facial proportions and eyebrow position for proper correction, the result will not look unnaturally lifted as you are concerned. On the contrary, you can achieve a comfortable and natural lifting effect that looks just like your original self. 🔹 Conclusion 🔹 Key Points: The key to eye surgery for middle-aged women is not simply making the eyes bigger, but balancing the upper face, extending from the forehead to the eyebrows and eyelids. 🔹 Management Points: Depending on the individual's rate of aging and daily lifestyle habits after surgery, the effects can be maintained healthily for several years or more. 🔹 Necessity of specialist consultation: To accurately determine the true cause of your drooping eyelids, we strongly recommend that you first receive a precise diagnosis from a board-certified plastic surgeon with extensive clinical experience. I hope you find the real cause hidden behind your drooping eyes and regain your most beautiful and vibrant gaze! ✨ Garnet Plastic Surgery Clinic Director Baek In-soo - Graduated from Korea University College of Medicine - Graduated from Korea University Graduate School (Major in Plastic Surgery) - Plastic surgeon at the National Medical Center - (Former) Chief Director of Jewelry Plastic Surgery Clinic - Regular member of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons - Regular member of the Korean Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery - Regular member of the Korean Craniofacial Society - Regular member of the Facial Contouring Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons - Regular member of the Oculoplastic Surgery Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons - Regular member of the Rhinoplasty Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons View more expert columns by Director Baek In-soo of Garnet Plastic Surgery Clinic 🔗 [Health Column] Improving Eyelid Sagging in Middle Age: Key Points of Natural-Looking Upper Blepharoplasty 🔗 [Health Column] Why Under-Eye Surgery Changes Mid-Face Impression: A Summary of SOOF Lower Blepharoplasty Standards 🔗 [Health Column] Why You Should Consider Forehead Reduction and Forehead Lift Together 🔗 [Health Column] Under-eye Surgery for Those in Their 40s: Is Lower Blepharoplasty Always the Answer?

백인수 원장26.04.28Views 401Likes 4 Why do horizontal wrinkles on the bridge of the nose and drooping eyelids occur together? The solution is a 'forehead lift'! ✨[6]
hello, Director Baek In-soo of Garnet Plastic Surgery no see.

They seem like concerns about completely different body parts, but in fact, these two are Descent of forehead tissue It is often a concern that originates from a single root. Today, let's explore the root cause of that heavy expression and how to solve it together! 🫧 Why do drooping eyelids and wrinkles on the bridge of the nose always appear as a set? ? 🟢 This is because the forehead tissue, pulled down by gravity, causes the structure around the eyes to collapse. Over time, facial tissues lose elasticity and gradually sag downward due to the influence of gravity. In particular, when the forehead and eyebrows sag downward, the skin of the upper eyelids overlaps, eyelid drooping This appears. The problem doesn't end here! When our vision is obstructed by drooping eyelids, we unconsciously try to open our eyes wide. Repeatedly use the forehead and glabella muscles You will end up doing it. In this process Horizontal wrinkles on the bridge of the nose It is about settling deeply. 💡 It is easier to understand if you think of it not simply as a problem with the eyelids, but as a 'chain reaction' starting from the forehead! What exactly is the role of a forehead lift? ? 🟢 It restores sagging forehead and eyebrows to their original positions, improving the fundamental structure. . Forehead lifting is not simply a surgery to pull the skin. The goal is to restore balance to the upper face by entirely rearranging the tissue layers supporting the forehead and eyebrows. • Natural improvement : When the eyebrows are raised, the overlapping eyelids naturally spread out. ✨ • Muscle tension relief : You no longer need to overuse your forehead muscles to open your eyes. • Wrinkle reduction : As muscle overuse is reduced, you can expect the horizontal wrinkles on the bridge of the nose and between the eyebrows to soften. What is the right forehead lift method for me? ? 🟢 The incision method varies depending on the individual forehead width and problem areas. To achieve natural and long-lasting effects, you must move the muscles and soft tissues together, rather than simply tightening the skin. 🔹 Endoscopic forehead lift : We make only a small incision inside the scalp and use an endoscope to precisely dissect and fix the tissue. 🔹 Incisional forehead lift : It is a method of making an incision along the hairline or scalp to directly pull and fix the tissue. 🔹 Hairline correction combined : If you are concerned about a wide forehead, the hairline position is adjusted simultaneously with the forehead lift. What changes can I expect after a forehead lift? ? 🟢 You can achieve not only distinct eyes but also an overall soft and bright impression. ✔️ Droopy eyebrows are lifted, making the heavy eye look refreshing. ✔️ The habit of tensing your forehead to open your eyes is corrected, and forehead wrinkles are alleviated. 📌 ✔️ Reduced tension on the glabella and bridge of the nose improves horizontal wrinkles. ✔️ It has the effect of making the overall impression clearer and brighter. ⚠️ However, please keep in mind that the degree of improvement may vary depending on skin elasticity and individual structure! Are there any precautions or side effects for a forehead lift? ? 🟢 As with all surgeries, changes during the recovery process and skilled diagnosis are essential. ! 📍 recovery process : Swelling and bruising may persist for about 1 to 2 weeks after surgery. 📍 sensory change : The sensation in the forehead or scalp may be temporarily dulled, but in most cases, it recovers over time. 📍 Medical staff The importance of : Caution is required, as asymmetry or excessive elevation may occur if the medical team lacks surgical experience. Thinking that "simply having eye surgery will solve everything" can be dangerous. This is because if the cause lies in the forehead, eyelid surgery alone may not yield satisfactory results. Who do you recommend forehead lifting to? ? 🟢 If you are having these concerns, a forehead lift can be an effective alternative! ✅ Suitable cases • Those whose eyelids and eyebrows have sagged simultaneously • Those whose wrinkles deepen due to the habit of opening their eyes using their forehead muscles • Those who repeatedly develop horizontal wrinkles on the bridge of the nose or between the eyebrows • Those who are concerned about their eyes looking dull and their impression looking heavy ⚠️ Cases requiring caution • Cases where only the eyelid skin itself is stretched (upper blepharoplasty may be more suitable) • Those with severe chronic diseases or hemorrhagic disorders • Those with unrealistic expectations regarding the surgical outcome FAQ Q1. Does the horizontal wrinkle on the bridge of the nose definitely improve as well? A1. Yes, in many cases, it improves! The principle is that wrinkles are naturally alleviated as the habit of excessively tensing the muscles around the nose when opening the eyes disappears. However, deep wrinkles may require additional care. Q2. I'm worried that I'll have a lot of scars after the surgery. A2. Most incisions are made inside the scalp or along the hairline, so they are not easily visible from the outside. Although there are variations depending on individual constitution and care, the surgery is performed in a way that minimizes the burden of scarring. Q3. Do the effects last a lifetime? A3. Forehead lifting improves structural causes, so the effects last for a relatively long time. However, since the aging process continues even after surgery, some changes may appear after a very long time. Conclusion ✨ Forehead lift It is a surgery that goes beyond simple cosmetic purposes to harmoniously improve functional discomfort of the eyes and the overall impression. Do not view drooping eyelids and wrinkles on the bridge of the nose as separate issues, Approach based on the entire upper facial structure Doing so can be a fundamental solution. ✨ Accurate diagnosis comes first. : It is important to distinguish whether the cause is the eyelids or the eyebrows. ✨ Selecting skilled medical staff : Consult with an expert who has a good understanding of facial anatomy. ✨ natural impression : It is better to plan within a range that suits you rather than being overly ambitious.

hello, Director Baek In-soo of Garnet Plastic Surgery no see. Regarding the changes in the eyes that occur in middle age, such as drooping eyelids that make the eyes look heavy and impair vision, many people tend to think that “the eyelids are the only problem.” 👀 However, in reality, it is often a complex change that extends down to the eyebrows and forehead. For this reason, if upper eyelid surgery is performed alone, the results may not meet expectations. Today, I will easily explain from a structural perspective why forehead lifts are considered alongside eye surgery for middle-aged patients.✨ Isn't middle-aged eye aging just an issue of the 'eyelids'? 🟢 Eyelid drooping often occurs together with eyebrow and forehead sagging. Upper eyelid sagging in people in their 40s and 50s is not merely a problem of excess skin. It is accompanied by complex changes involving decreased eyelid skin elasticity, relaxation of the orbicularis oculi muscle, eyebrow drooping, and relaxation of the forehead soft tissues. In other words, it is not just the eyelids that are drooping. The eyebrows and forehead have come down together. That is often the case. 💡Example: The habit of opening the eyes while tensing the forehead, making the eyelids look heavy 🎯 It is important to evaluate not only the eyelids but also the eyebrow position and forehead sagging. Why can removing too much skin during upper eyelid surgery be problematic? 🟢 Excessive restraint can cause changes in appearance and a tense eye condition. The purpose of upper eyelid surgery is to improve vision and correct facial features, but skin in middle-aged patients Excessive removal underneath A decrease in the distance between the eyebrows and eyes, and a significant change in appearance may occur. Also, as the eyelids become over-tense The forehead compensatory action may increase when opening the eyes. 💡Example situation Cases where only a large amount of skin was excised while the eyebrows were already drooping → The eyebrows appear relatively lower, creating an unnatural impression ⚠️ Caution! Simply “removing a large amount” does not always lead to good results. Why is a forehead lift often considered together? 🟢 This is an approach to reposition structural causes (eyebrow and forehead sagging). Forehead lift surgery is not simply a procedure to smooth out wrinkles. Surgery to reposition descended eyebrows and forehead soft tissues to their anatomical positions no see. Through this ✔️ Natural eyebrow lift ✔️ Normalize eyebrow-eye distance ✔️ Prevents excessive skin excision You can expect effects such as... In other words, an “approach of cutting less and making it more natural” becomes possible. Is a forehead lift necessary for all middle-aged patients? 🟢 Whether to proceed in parallel depends on whether the eyebrows are lowered. Not all middle-aged patients need a forehead lift. However, in the following cases, we actively consider parallel implementation. 🔸 When eyebrow descent is distinct 🔸 In cases where there are many compensatory wrinkles on the forehead 🔸 When you feel a lot of tension in your forehead when opening your eyes 🔸 If the distance between the eyebrows and eyes is already narrow In such situations, upper eyelid surgery alone can actually worsen the results. 💡Simple Self-Check Example If your eyes feel more comfortable when you gently lift your eyebrows with your hand → It is highly likely that this is the cause of eyebrow sagging. What is the most important principle in middle-aged eye surgery? The key is 'rearrangement of sagging structures' rather than the amount of resection. The key to middle-aged eye surgery is It is not about how much is removed It lies in how the sagging structure is repositioned. Because the eyelids are part of the upper face It must be judged within the balance of the entire upper face, including the forehead and eyebrows. You can expect natural and stable results. It is important to evaluate the entire upper face, not just the eyelids. FAQ Q1. Can it look unnatural after surgery? A1. Excessive resection may make the eyes look hollow or cause asymmetry, and excessive pulling may give the impression of being surprised. Q2. How long does the recovery period take, and how long does it take to return to daily life? A2. Bruising and significant swelling will last for about 1 to 2 weeks, and returning to daily life will take about 7 to 10 days; it may take 1 to 3 months to return to a natural state. Q3. Which surgery is correct, upper eyelid surgery or forehead lift? A3. If the eyelid skin is sagging, it is determined based on upper blepharoplasty; if the eyebrows droop and cover the eyes, it is determined based on forehead lift surgery. Conclusion ✨ The success of middle-aged eye surgery is Rather than “how much self-restraint” It depends on “how accurately the cause of the sagging was corrected.” ✨ ✔️ Evaluate not only the eyelids but also the eyebrow position and forehead sagging. ✔️ A structural balance approach is more important than excessive restraint ✔️ Personalized consultation based on individual anatomical condition is necessary If you feel heavy in your eyes and have to use the strength of your forehead to open them Not just simple upper eyelid surgery It is recommended to consult with a specialist for a comprehensive upper facial evaluation.

백인수 원장26.02.24Views 481Likes 3 Why do we need to look at the forehead before double eyelid surgery? The eyebrow position is key.[3]
There are cases where people go for double eyelid surgery consultation and are recommended forehead augmentation first. The important criterion here is not simply “eyes”. Eyebrow position and structure between the eyes no see. If you only perform double eyelid surgery without considering the relationship between the eyes and eyebrows, the result may look stuffy or cause a change in your image. Forehead augmentation is a surgery that is difficult to separate from eye surgery. Forehead augmentation is a surgery that raises the position of the eyebrows. Eyelid surgery is a surgery that deals with the eyes themselves. But the positions of the eyes and eyebrows are connected. It is difficult to judge the eyes and the forehead separately. Especially when the distance between the eyebrows and eyes is narrow If sagging skin covers the eyes, It is necessary to look at the condition of the forehead before the eyes. Why might forehead augmentation be considered before double eyelid surgery? 1) Because sometimes you use your forehead when you open your eyes If your eyes are uncomfortable or the skin is covering your eyes You unconsciously raise your eyebrows and open your eyes. In this case, it may look like “the eyes are small” on the outside, The real cause is not the eyes. Eyebrow and forehead usage habits It could be. 2) If the eyebrow position is low, it may be difficult to solve with double eyelids alone. When the eyebrow position is low If you only get double eyelid surgery The distance between the eyebrows and the double eyelids appears narrower It can make your eyes look dull and blurry. A significant change in impression can be felt That is, if the structural cause is in the forehead Eye surgery alone may not produce natural results. Note: Why the Order of Surgeries Matters Changes that can occur when double eyelids are performed first without forehead augmentation Relaxing your forehead can make your eyebrows appear more droopy. If you try to open your eyes wide, the feeling of being wide-open may become stronger. When considering a forehead lift later on, there may be insufficient skin to lift it. There is a possibility that the double eyelids may loosen or deepen. Also, it is a concern to have a forehead lift after double eyelid surgery. It is mentioned that this may be disadvantageous in terms of surgical order. Differentiation Point: Need to distinguish whether it is a forehead problem or an eye correction problem. A situation where you open your eyes using your forehead Not all causes are the same. Eyebrow positioning issue → Consider forehead augmentation Problems with the ability to open the eyes themselves → Consider eye surgery thus “Is it because my eyes are weak that I use my forehead?” “Do you use your forehead because of sagging skin?” The process of distinguishing is important. Summary: In this case, it makes sense to look at the forehead condition first. If the distance between the eyebrows and eyes is very narrow If you have a habit of opening your eyes with your forehead tense If your eyes feel stuffy due to sagging skin In this situation Rather than approaching double eyelid surgery alone, It is important to judge the eyebrow position and forehead structure together. It can serve as a benchmark for more natural results. Especially if you feel that you can open your eyes well. If you are using the forehead, the direction of the surgery required may be different. After closing my eyes and pressing my forehead How to check the change in eyebrow position and eye size when opening your eyes It may be helpful for your own judgment, but Making an accurate judgment may not be easy, so please refer to the actual reviews and information below! 👇 See real visitor reviews 👇 Jewelry Plastic Surgery Clinic in Gangnam-gu: Wrinkles disappear after forehead augmentation surgery.

hello, 3D Plastic Surgery Researching surgeries to become younger at Director Heo Jae-won, a board-certified plastic surgeon no see. Forehead lift During consultations, I very frequently receive the question, “Does the fixed method determine the results?” especially Bone Tunneling, Endotine, Pixtain You seem to be having a lot of trouble deciding which one is better. today The actual significance of the fixation method in forehead lift results I will calmly summarize it for you from the perspective of surgical structure. 1. Is the fixation method really the key to a forehead lift? ? 🎯 The biggest factor determining the results is the 'exfoliation range'. . Many people think that the fixed method itself determines the result, but, The part I consider most important in surgery is How widely and accurately was it peeled off? no see. (Simply put, it is more important how well you have loosened the skin so that it can move.) ✔️ The fixation method Detailed eyebrow shape adjustment It can affect ✔️ However, the key to the overall lifting effect is Scope of the surgery It is located at. for example, If the peeling has already been done sufficiently well No matter which fixed method is used Stable results You can expect 2. Is a forehead lift a surgery that can be adjusted in 1mm increments? 🎯 'Setting goals that consider recovery amount' is more important than precise figures. . During consultations, I often receive the question, “Can I raise my eyebrows by 4mm?” To start with the conclusion, Forehead lifting is not a surgery that is adjusted in 1mm increments like double eyelid surgery. ✔️ Even if it looks sufficiently lifted immediately after surgery ✔️ Over time, on average, about It comes down about 3mm again. If the skin is thick and tough, the amount of recovery is greater, and Conversely, severely sagging and soft skin may have a low recovery rate. So before the surgery Based on the “final target location” Set the degree of lifting during surgery by working backward. do. This is not a sensory judgment, Experience-based computational approach no see. 3. What is the difference between bone tunneling and Endotine/Pixtain? 🎯 There are differences in terms of the number of fixed points, ease of adjustment, and cost. . In forehead lifting, after sufficiently loosening the skin through peeling Upward state You will decide how to 'keep them'. The method used at this time ✔️ Fixed with sutures Bone tunneling , ✔️ Fixing using a device Endotine and Fixtain no see. ① Number of fixed points Endotine and Fixtain : Approximately 5 fixed points per device When using 2, a total of 10 fixed points are formed. Bone tunneling : 1 suture per tunnel → 1 fixation point A total of 3 fixed points when implemented in 3 locations ✔️ Mechanically, Endotine and Fixtain have greater fixation strength. ✔️ But A sufficiently stable result with bone tunneling alone You can obtain. It is the same principle as both 60 and 80 points being considered passing in an exam where the passing standard is 50 points. Endotine Bone tunneling ② Ease of adjustment during surgery Endotine and Fixtain It is a structure that fixes tissue by 'hanging' it, so during surgery Fine-tuning is relatively easy. . ✔️ “Should I raise it a little more?” ✔️ “Should I pull a little less?” You can respond immediately to such judgments. the other side Bone tunneling is a method of tying with sutures. Because of this Once tied, there is the burden of having to untie and re-tunnel it! ⚠️ → That much Surgery requiring accurate judgment in one go no see. ③ Costs and Perceived Effects Endotine and Pixelstein are both Device with high material costs no see. In particular, the cost burden is higher for imported products like Endotine. ✔️ But The difference in perceived effectiveness relative to the price is not significant. no see. ✔️ On the contrary, some patients foreign body sensation and nerve irritation They also find it uncomfortable. So I We do not view “expensive fixation methods = unconditionally better results.” 4. Ultimately, which fixed method would be best to choose? ? 🎯 Both methods can be sufficiently good choices depending on the patient's condition. To summarize, I can say it like this. ✨ Surgically, Endotine and Fixtain may be slightly more convenient, but ✨ You can achieve sufficiently good results with bone tunneling alone. The important thing is ✔️ Skin thickness ✔️ Degree of sagging ✔️ Individual Recovery Characteristics Considering all these factors Choosing the right method no see. Rather than preconceptions about specific fixed methods, Select after understanding the surgical principles What you do is the most important thing. FAQ ❓ Q1. Is it necessary to dissect the eyelids as well for a better forehead lift? A1. If the goal is to improve eyelid sagging, you generally need to access the upper eyelid area to see effective results. I personally palpate the area during surgery to confirm the extent of dissection before proceeding. Q2. Is a 3-point incision sufficient for temporal (temple) dissection? A2. The 3-point incision is a method of performing surgery using an endoscope by making a total of three small incisions on the forehead. With an endoscope, temporal dissection is possible with a 3-point approach. However, in some cases, an additional incision may make the surgery easier. Q3. Does the effect increase if a large portion of the corrugator muscle is resected? A3. The corrugator muscle is the muscle that acts when you furrow your brow. Complete resection can cause hollowing of the glabella. I prefer an endoscopic approach that focuses on controlling the muscle fibers causing the problem, rather than complete resection. conclusion ✔️ From forehead lift Fixed methods are not everything. ✔️ The scope of surgery and individual recovery characteristics have a greater impact on the results. ✔️ Rather than blindly insisting on a specific method, Select the right choice for your situation This is important. ⚠️ There is significant individual variation in all surgeries. If you have any concerns right now, Through sufficient consultation with a specialist I recommend that you find the direction that suits you. 3D Plastic Surgery Director Heo Jae-won Graduated from Yonsei University College of Medicine Master of Medicine, Yonsei University Graduate School Severance Hospital Plastic Surgeon Regular member of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Regular member of the Korean Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery Regular member of the Korean Society of Craniofacial Plastic Surgery Regular member of the Oculoplastic Surgery Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Regular member of the Rhinoplasty Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Regular member of the Anti-Aging Plastic Surgery Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Regular member of the Liposuction Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Regular member of the Laser Plastic Surgery Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Regular member of the Botox, Filler, and Thread Lifting Research Group of the Korean Society of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgeons Current Director of Ipse Plastic Surgery Clinic 10 years of experience specializing in lifting procedures

The more middle-aged the patient Rather than “how much it was pulled” The balance of “how natural it is” is important. In surgery for middle-aged patients, 'harmony' is more important than the 'size of change.' FAQ Q1. Is it necessary to perform forehead reduction and forehead lift surgery together? A1. It is not absolutely necessary to perform them simultaneously. However, since forehead lengthening, wrinkles, and eyebrow sagging often appear together after middle age, combining them can lead to more harmonious improvement. Q2. Is the scar not very noticeable? A2. The procedure is performed through an incision at the hairline boundary and designed to be positioned between the hairs to minimize exposure. However, if hair density is low, a prior consultation is important. Q3. Can I experience decreased sensation in the forehead or hair loss? A3. Temporary sensory loss or hair loss after surgery may occur relatively commonly, but in most cases, it recovers over time.

백인수 원장26.01.07Views 201Likes 3 When you're concerned about sagging forehead and wrinkles, here's a summary of criteria for choosing between endoscopic and incisional forehead lifts.[9]
When your forehead wrinkles get deeper or your eyelids droop and you feel stuffy, naturally Forehead Giant It comes to mind. But when you actually look into it, Endoscopic forehead lift and incisional forehead lift There are two ways to do this, so it's hard to decide which one to choose. In particular, even if it is the same forehead statue Understand and choose the difference because the approach, recovery burden, and scope of application are different. This is important. Why is it important to know the 'difference in method'? The forehead statue It is not a simple skin tightening procedure, 👉 Elasticity of forehead skin 👉 Eyebrow position and degree of sagging 👉 Depth and range of wrinkles It is a surgery that requires consideration of the same factors together. In the past, the incision method was mainly used, but later, to reduce the burden Endoscopic forehead augmentation appears As you do this, your choices expand. Forehead Giant, from the basics Incision forehead lift Because it is performed by directly checking a relatively wide area, the range of correction is large. the other side Endoscopic forehead lift It is a method that uses small incisions and equipment to check the inside, which is meaningful in reducing the burden of incisions. However, rather than simply assuming that “the latest method is always better” or “the traditional method is stronger,” the key is to choose a direction that suits your situation. The options are broadly divided as follows: Option 1) Endoscopic forehead lift ✔ Relatively less burdensome incision ✔ You can proceed while checking the inside ❗ However, this does not apply to all cases. Option 2) Incisional forehead lift ✔ Wide range of correction possible ✔ Consider when sagging is large or when a wide range of changes is required ❗ It is necessary to consider both the burden of recovery and the possibility of scarring. Which method is more 'right for me'? Ultimately, the criteria for judgment can be summarized as follows: “Is the sagging range wide?” “Do I need a major correction to my eyelids and forehead?” “How much scarring and recovery burden can you bear?” “Is the change I want ‘natural improvement’ or ‘clear correction’?” The answer to this question is soon, 👉 Is it closer to an endoscopic forehead lift? 👉 Is the incision forehead statue more realistic? It becomes the standard for determining direction. Lastly, some good points to check before choosing 🟡 Forehead skin elasticity and thickness 🟡 Depth and location of forehead wrinkles 🟡 Whether your eyelids are droopy 🟡 Scar tolerance range 🟡 Level of burden during the recovery process Considering the above factors together, it is not simply a question of “good/bad”. The right forehead augmentation method for me can be judged more realistically.

Furthermore, the face shape that has become long, square, and sagging due to aging, compared to when one was young sleek Restore to U-line Because it does it, in the true sense Anti-aging surgery It is called. ✨ The evolution of modern facelifts beyond simple skin incisions In fact, in the early days, facelift surgery was performed using a relatively simple method of merely slightly separating the outer layer of skin to pull the tissues. One point worth noting is that recent surgical trends have completely changed! 📌 Recently located under the skin The subcutaneous fascia layer of the face called SMAS While peeling very widely, We proceed with the facelift after thoroughly severing the retaining ligaments that are strongly holding the tissues together. Thanks to that, compared to the past Much longer-lasting and dramatic lifting effects You can now experience it firsthand. I have been getting thread lifts and laser treatments regularly, but now the sagging cheeks and jawline haven't been resolved at all, and my face just looks wide and flat. Middle-aged people who do 🔸 When you want a fundamental change in your face line 🔸 The first surgery you look for is a facelift. 📌 If facial sagging is severe, rather than repeatedly performing procedures that only tighten the outer skin, restoring the fascial structure beneath the skin to its original position A fundamental facelift can be a much more economical and reliable alternative. Why do some people end up with only scars and insufficient results after a facelift? This is because the 'SMAS fascia layer,' the core tissue of the facelift, was not accurately understood anatomically and handled with meticulous care. . ⚠️ High-difficulty surgery, problems with incorrect methods As mentioned earlier, facelift surgery is considered one of the most difficult plastic surgeries because it involves handling numerous structures of the face. For this reason, even though some occasionally made a big decision to undergo surgery, It left a big scar on my face, and I don't see any effect on wrinkle improvement at all. And I often meet people who express their dissatisfaction. 😥 This is highly likely because the underlying cause was not resolved during the surgery, or Possibility that the surgical method was incorrect This is very high. 🔹 The key to the success or failure of a facelift, the SMAS layer To maintain proper and satisfactory results for a long time after a facelift, the ability to accurately manage the SMAS (Superficial Musculo Aponeurotic System) is of the utmost importance. The SMAS layer is our face's A thin layer of fascia existing between subcutaneous fat and facial muscles It refers to the key tissue that determines the lifting effect! The problem is that not only does the thickness of this fascia layer vary from person to person, but it is also very sensitive in certain areas. The facial nerve passes densely or The point is that the fascia itself thins rapidly. Therefore, when performing a facelift Only by precisely and meticulously dissecting this fascial layer and then pulling the tissue with appropriate force to firmly fix it can excellent results be achieved without side effects. In conclusion, it is no exaggeration to say that the key to modern facelifts lies entirely in how this SMAS layer is handled, dissected, and tightened. I’m really scared to get the surgery because an acquaintance of mine had a facelift and was left with deep, knife-like scars or ears that looked like sharp blades. There are many people doing this. 🔸 This phenomenon may occur when the outer skin is forcibly pulled and fixed without properly peeling off the SMAS layer. 📌 To maintain a natural facial expression without worrying about scarring, you must carefully check whether the hospital you are considering for surgery possesses the technological capability to precisely and safely separate the invisible SMAS layer beneath the skin. What are the differences between the 'Deep Plane' and 'Dual Plane' facelifts, which have emerged as the new trend? The difference is whether the entire layer is peeled off once and pulled in one direction, or whether the skin and SMAS layer are separated and peeled twice, then pulled three-dimensionally in different directions. Then, among the numerous facelift techniques, why are specialized methods particularly emphasized? 🤔 Among surgical methods, "Dual Plane Facelift" is a prime example of a technique that maximizes lifting efficiency through particularly delicate and precise dissection. If I compare it with the existing conventional method, you will be able to easily understand the difference. 🔹 Limitations of the existing Deep Plane method One of the commonly performed facelift techniques Deep Plane The method involves peeling off only the space below the SMAS layer. Single-step peeling method no see. The skin and the SMAS layer are pulled together as a whole while remaining tightly attached to each other. Because it is tied together as one mass and pulled Advantages include minimal unnecessary tissue damage and relatively fast recovery. It has. However, unfortunately, since the pulling direction is limited to only one direction, There is a drawback in that after surgery, unwanted areas may appear bulky or look somewhat awkward and stiff when making facial expressions. I did. ✨ High-end technique, the innovation of Dual Plane facelift On the other hand, 'dual-plane facelift,' which has recently become the mainstream trend, literally [removes] the facial structures A high-end surgical method that precisely divides and pulls into two layers no see. ✌️ Perfectly separating the space beneath the skin and the space beneath the SMAS fascia. Two peels (2 peels) It goes through a process. With the SMAS layer and the skin layer separated in this way, they are pulled in independent directions. Because each layer is pulled at the most ideal angle, the expression is not awkward and is much more three-dimensional. Natural plastic surgery results You can expect. ✨ Of course, the skin layer and the SMAS layer must be precisely exfoliated separately, and the meticulous pulling in different directions Vector control technology Although this is essential and requires a high level of skill from the doctor, the satisfaction patients feel when looking in the mirror is correspondingly very high. The recent global trend in facelifts involves gently handling these multiple layers of anatomical structures, Natural balance of the entire face It is evolving in a direction that matches. In the past, if you focused solely on strongly pulling up what was sagging, We now aim to maintain the surgical effects much more naturally and robustly while preserving the patient's inherent natural beauty. "I'm worried that after the surgery, the corners of my mouth might look too stretched toward my ears, or my face might look awkwardly pulled, as if I were standing in a windy place." To those who are doing it, 🔸 Dual-plane method that separates the skin and fascia and pulls them with customized vectors 🔸 This makes for an excellent solution. 📌 Facelift surgery stands at the pinnacle of anti-aging cosmetic surgeries, and among them, the Dual Plane is a high-end procedure that represents the ultimate in precision. If you desire natural facial expression changes, be sure to ask about the dissection method and vector adjustment during the consultation before surgery. Luark Plastic Surgery's special solution for safe and natural changes! We operate a specialized 1:1 center that naturally enhances your original facial contours through thorough consultation, rather than creating an artificial face by excessively tightening the skin. . 🔹 The Unwavering Philosophy of Ruak Facelift Center Since a facelift is a matter of a patient's entire life, we must be cautious. Ruak Plastic Surgery operates a separate, independent center specializing in facelifts. We provide in-depth medical care. 🏥 Through extensive consultation with the patient, we comprehensively identify the areas of concern that upset them the most when looking in the mirror, and approach the procedure with caution by establishing a precise surgical plan that minimizes strain. Our most important principle is to avoid excessive stretching that creates a shiny and artificial result. ❌ This is because, as the saying goes, too much of a good thing is as bad as too little, an overly pulled face actually causes awkwardness. Ruak is the patient Naturally enhances your original beautiful facial contours Therefore, we provide a high level of satisfaction so that after surgery, you can hear pleasant compliments from those around you, such as, "Why do you look so good and young these days?" ✨ An anatomical approach by a plastic surgeon that relieves concerns about side effects It is clear that a facelift is a major surgery where the decision-making process leading up to lying on the operating table is quite arduous and involves deep deliberation. However, I can say with certainty that this is a surgery that offers a significant and distinct wrinkle improvement effect and satisfaction that cannot be replaced by general laser lifting or minor procedures. However, there is a safety rule you must keep in mind here! ⚠️ Beneath our facial skin, there are countless complex mechanisms responsible for facial expressions Facial nerves are densely distributed like a spiderweb It is done. Capable of accurately anatomically identifying and safely preserving the course of these nerves, It must be performed by a verified plastic surgeon. You can complete the surgery safely without worrying about side effects. Therefore, if you are currently experiencing deep stress due to your sagging facial features and drooping jawline every time you look in the mirror, we strongly recommend that you do not suffer in silence but instead visit a nearby plastic surgeon to receive a comfortable diagnosis and consultation. FAQ Q1. What is the exact difference in principle between thread lifting and a facelift? ? A1. Thread lifting is a simple procedure using medical threads, performed when skin sagging is relatively mild or when you want to finely refine your facial contours. 😉 the other side Facelift It affects not only the surface of the skin but also the deep layers within the skin that are the root cause of aging. A surgical procedure that directly and extensively dissects the SMAS fascia layer to firmly pull and fix it. It is. Therefore, as aging progresses significantly, sagging and a noticeable decrease in volume are observed simultaneously. For middle-aged and older adults, a facelift is a much more fundamental and long-lasting solution than thread lifting. It is particularly excellent for improving jowls and marionette lines around the mouth. Q 2. What exactly is the difference between the Dual Plane Facelift, which is said to be the current trend, and traditional surgery? ? A2. The 'deep plane' facelift that was widely used previously was a method that did not separate the skin and the SMAS layer, but instead bound them together as one large layer and pulled them up as a whole (one-step dissection). On the other hand, the high-end technique 'Dual Plane Facelift' precisely [treats] the layer beneath the skin and the layer beneath the SMAS fascia separately. The 'double peeling' process of separating twice It goes through. After that, the two organizations Because it pulls separately while carefully adjusting in different optimal directions (vectors) , it has the strong advantage that after surgery, the skin does not wrinkle or the facial expression does not become stiff, and it looks very three-dimensional and natural, just like the original face. Q3. Why is choosing the right hospital and medical team so important when deciding on a facelift? ? A3. A facelift requires not only the precise dissection of the SMAS layer, the core supporting structure within the facial skin, but also the numerous threads flowing through those thin crevices. Plastic surgery of the highest difficulty that must be performed while perfectly preserving important facial nerves This is because of this. Therefore, having a perfect understanding of the anatomical structure of the entire face and the location of fine nerves Plastic surgeon with extensive clinical experience It is important to choose. To achieve satisfactory results, rather than simply chasing trendy surgeries that everyone else is doing, you must carefully compare whether the medical team is trustworthy and capable of developing a personalized approach plan tailored to your facial aging condition and bone structure. conclusion: ✔️Careful selection tailored to your elasticity and facial structure The most suitable surgical method for a facelift inevitably varies completely depending on the individual's skin elasticity, the depth of sagging due to aging, and their innate anatomical facial structure. Therefore, rather than blindly deciding on surgery based solely on online reviews, it is crucial to make a prudent decision after sufficient and in-depth consultation with medical professionals. ✨ Accurate, precise diagnosis tailored to your current aging state rather than trends We do not recommend choosing a hospital based solely on the names of procedures or specific surgeries that are currently trending in Gangnam or online communities. A patient process must precede this, involving a precise diagnosis of your current aging status and the clear direction for improvement, followed by a step-by-step search for a customized lifting method tailored exclusively for you. 📌 Comparison of medical team experience and specific surgical methods is essential Since a facelift is one of the most dramatic surgeries in the field of plastic surgery in terms of the changes and satisfaction seen when looking in the mirror after the operation, we hope you will carefully compare and analyze the medical team's extensive clinical experience, specific surgical methods (dissection range, vector control method, etc.), and a personalized 1:1 plan that listens to your concerns before making your final choice of hospital.

hello. Director Kim Jeong-min of View Plastic Surgery Clinic no see. Every time I look in the mirror Face line that isn't what it used to be So, even though I wondered, "Is it because I haven't had enough sleep?", before I knew it, Deepened nasolabial folds and a sagging jawline You must have been very worried because you could clearly feel this, right? That very time when deciding on surgery right away feels burdensome, yet you worry that doing nothing will cause it to sag even more! My facial condition is simple Procedure possible steps Whether, or not surgery Is this a more effective step? I will give you a guide right now on how to clearly distinguish them. 1. Is my skin still at a stage where treatments are sufficient? ? 🌱 If you feel your skin elasticity has slightly decreased and is sagging a little, laser or thread lifting is the answer! If you have these symptoms Procedure Consider this first: ✅ Only when smiling When nasolabial folds are slightly prominent ✅ The jawline weakly In the case of the initial stage of collapse ✅ of the entire face Voluminous It is still in a good state. At this stage, applying physical tension with thread lifting or boosting elasticity with radiofrequency or ultrasound lasers alone is sufficient Natural improvement This is possible. Above all, prepare for surgery The burden of recovery is low. That is a huge advantage! 2. Is it time to consider surgery on my skin? ? 🌱 If the effects of the procedure feel too short-lived or if there is a lot of excess skin when pulled by hand, it falls into the realm of surgery. For people like this Facelift surgery I recommend: ✅ Between the forehead and the space between the eyebrows Severe wrinkles In the case of drooping eyelids ✅ For wrinkles and sagging skin all over the face all at once If you want to improve ✅ For those who want a 확실한 (definite) lifting effect without worrying about scars or nerve damage It is not simply that the outer skin has lost elasticity, Possibility that the deep fascial layer (SMAS) has already started to sag It is high. In this case, rather than a procedure that only tightens the surface Resolves the fundamental sagging The surgery performed is much more effective. 3. How is a facelift different from alternative procedures? 🌱 The key is to directly correct the deep structure (SMAS layer) that causes aging. Let me highlight the key points of a facelift: 📌 SMAS (fascial layer) dissection When the SMAS layer, a thin membrane surrounding muscles, loosens due to aging, the skin sags along with it. Through surgery, this layer is directly separated and tightened, and the excess is removed to produce a definite effect. 📌 No need to worry about scars The incision line is meticulously planned along the area around the ear to ensure that the scar is not noticeable after recovery. The more skilled the medical staff, the more cleverly they hide it along the hairline or behind the ears. Medical staff proficiency That is really important! 4. Essential points to check for a successful facelift ? 🌱Check for anatomical understanding and aftercare systems rather than simply low costs. Make sure to check these 3 things for satisfactory results: skilled medical staff The face is a complex area where numerous nerves and blood vessels pass through. Only medical professionals with extensive clinical experience can perform precise surgery without nerve damage. 1:1 Custom Design Everyone has different skin thickness and bone structure. The extent and angle of the peeling must be finely adjusted to suit the individual's condition to avoid 'pointed ears' or awkward facial expressions. Systematic follow-up care In addition to having an anesthesiologist on staff, having well-equipped scar care and swelling management programs is essential for a faster return to daily life. 💡 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) Q1. Will there be significant scarring after a facelift? ? A1. The incision is usually made along the line around the ear, and skilled medical professionals hide the scar along the hairline or behind the ear so that it is not easily visible. It will be relatively inconspicuous once it recovers over time, so you don't need to worry too much. Q2. I am still in my 40s; would it be okay for me to have surgery already? ? A2. The criterion is the 'degree of skin and fascia sagging' rather than age. If the effects of the procedure last only about a month, or if there is a lot of excess skin when you pull it taut, surgery may be a more suitable option at this stage. Please consult with a specialist. 💬Conclusion You cannot turn back time, but you can change the speed of aging. The dilemma between a lifting procedure and a facelift is likely due to the desire to return to "the youngest and most vibrant version of myself." Rather than being swayed by others' reviews or cheap events My current skin condition and the depth of sagging It is wise to find the most suitable method for it. Instead of worrying while looking in the mirror alone, try thoroughly checking the condition of your fascia with a professional. That small step will become the most valuable investment that determines the next 10 years.

It sounds really positive to hear that you don't have to fill up your HP. It feels as if the surgery was so perfect that there was absolutely no bleeding.

Swelling is reduced and recovery speed is much faster. FAQ ❓ Q1. What is the duration of the facelift surgery and anesthesia? A1.

허재원 원장26.02.26Views 413Likes 4 Why do facial contouring surgery prices keep rising? A structurally understandable reason.[3]
Among the anti-aging surgeries that become more popular with age, facelifts are particularly popular. Surgery with large price fluctuations is often mentioned. It is important to understand the price flow structurally, as it is an area where demand structure and labor structure work together, rather than simply feeling that it has “gone expensive.” What determines the price of facial contouring surgery? The cost of facial contouring surgery is not centered on the cost of materials. Cost structure centered on personnel and surgical procedures It's close to . Although it may appear to be a single operation, the actual operation process involves multiple stages of personnel being simultaneously involved, including consultation, surgical preparation, assistance, and treatment. Four Key Structures That Drive Price Rise 1) Labor-intensive surgical structure centered on personnel costs Facial contouring surgery is a highly complex procedure that requires significant surgical time, anatomic understanding, fine manual dexterity, and coordination among the surgical team. than the material surgeon operating room staff Consulting and Operations Staff Same as Structure with a high proportion of high-quality human resource retention costs no see. For this reason, securing and retaining skilled workers directly impacts price formation. 2) Continuous increase in demand for anti-aging products As interest in anti-aging grows, there is a growing trend of demand moving from non-surgical treatments to surgical treatments. especially Reduced aversion to surgery Feeling the limitations of non-surgical methods The growing need to maintain a youthful appearance As these changes accumulate, a structure is formed that expands the demand base for facial contouring surgery itself. 3) Market characteristics where demand is concentrated on ‘good hospitals’ Prices do not rise at all hospitals at the same time, but rather tend to rise at specific specialty hospitals. The reason is simple. Because facial contouring is a surgery with a large gap in results, a structure has been formed where patients choose hospitals based on results. in result Increase in number of cases Increased skill proficiency Additional demand inflow A virtuous cycle is created, leading to price increases centered on some hospitals. 4) Professional team-based operating structure It is common for multiple personnel, including a counseling team, surgical team, and support staff, to operate simultaneously for one patient. While these team-based operations are important for maintaining service quality, they can lead to increased fixed labor costs. Factors identified when looking at the “standards for a good hospital” Because facial contouring is a surgery with a large degree of technical variance, it is often the case that criteria factors are considered together rather than simply comparing prices. The most commonly cited criteria for judgment are as follows: Whether or not you are a plastic surgery specialist Experience and sensation of Smart Layer peeling Skill level that can be achieved without major nerve damage Whether high-difficulty options can be performed Appropriate surgery time Transparency in Disclosure of Before and After Photos especially Deflection technique As A method that simultaneously lifts the skin, fat, and SMAS layers is mentioned as an area where results can vary greatly depending on skill level.

This is because Botox is not a ‘treatment to smooth out wrinkles’, but rather a ‘treatment to prevent and alleviate wrinkles caused by muscle movement’. Wrinkles Without distinguishing between types If you do, you may not feel any effect or may experience uncomfortable results. The most common misconceptions about Botox “If I get botox on my forehead, all the wrinkles will go away?” ✔️ That's not true. Botox is This is not a treatment that will remove all wrinkles. ✔️ If it works : Occurs when smiling or making a face Expression wrinkles ❌ If the effect is almost nonexistent : Even if you stay still, it is deeply dented deep wrinkles If you don't know this difference → “I spent money, so why is it still the same?” → It can lead to experiences like “My eyes feel stuffy…” How Botox Works (And Why Are There Limitations?) Botox is Blocking nerve signals that move muscles do. The “move” signal from the brain to the muscles In the middle block As it becomes Less muscle contraction → less skin folds So the key role of Botox is not to 'fill in the existing wrinkles', but to 'reduce the folding action and prevent them from getting deeper'. There are two main types of wrinkles. ✔️ Expression wrinkles Occurs when smiling, squinting, or raising the forehead Relatively pale compared to the usual expressionless face Botox has an effect Representative parts wrinkles around the eyes Forehead wrinkles wrinkles between the eyebrows The fan wrinkles that appear around the mouth when smiling ❌ Corrugated wrinkles (valley wrinkles) Even if you stay still Already deeply entrenched Even if you pull the skin with your hand, a line remains. Little improvement with Botox In this case, even if you get botox → The wrinkles remain the same, but the muscles become weaker. drooping eyebrows, stuffiness This can happen. Why can't deep wrinkles be treated with Botox? The wrinkles are already By using repeated impressions A condition in which 'bones' have formed in the skin itself That is, it is not a problem of pressing from above (muscle) Problem with the bottom being off (volume) no see. So the solution direction also changes. A Different Approach to Wrinkles and Fine Lines ✔️ Deep wrinkles filler : Fill in small amounts along the excavated furrows collagen injections : Induces collagen regeneration in the skin, creating natural volume over time. fat grafting : A method of filling volume using fat from other areas Common points → 'filling and easing' approach ✔️ Fine wrinkles (thin, fine wrinkles) High-frequency laser treatment Sufficient moisturizing care However, there are limits to using laser alone to straighten deep grooves. Why Approaches Vary by Age and Condition situation Botox Key points 40s, wrinkles when smiling ✔️ Helpful Prevention and mitigation 50s, fine wrinkles ❌ Solo limit Laser and moisturizing Deep wrinkles even with a blank expression ❌ Not recommended Volume access elderly people ⚠️ Caution risk of sagging especially If you inject a lot of forehead botox when your skin has lost a lot of elasticity, it can cause sagging eyebrows and eyelids. A simple wrinkle check you can do at home ① Look in the mirror with a blank expression Even at this time, the wrinkles are deep → Botox effect is limited ② Try smiling or making a face Wrinkles only appear at this time → Consider Botox ✔️ Key Summary Box 🧠 Botox is not a panacea ✔️ Expression wrinkles → Botox plays a role ❌ Deep wrinkles → Botox alone has its limitations 📌 What's important is Differentiating Wrinkle Types 📌 Expressionless wrinkles + Botox = Less effective and more likely to cause discomfort Not “I have wrinkles on my forehead” First, let’s check “what kind of wrinkle it is” no see.
캐시닥 운영진26.02.02Views 221Likes 0 Summary of the differences and selection criteria for sub-eyelid fat repositioning, lower eyelid surgery, and mid-face lower eyelid lift surgery.
The area under the eyes is affected by fat, skin, muscles, and the midface at the same time. Although it may appear that “the area under the eyes is bulging or saggy,” the appropriate surgery will vary depending on where and how it has changed. This distinction is important because choosing the wrong surgery for your condition can lead to reoperation and changes in your appearance. Below, we will organize the procedures in order: lower eyelid fat repositioning → lower eyelid surgery → mid-face lower eyelid lift. Undereye fat repositioning surgery ✔ Definition This is a surgery to reposition the fat that has protruded through the conjunctiva on the inside of the eye downward. It is performed without making an incision on the outer skin. ✔ Principle Rather than removing the bulging fat under the eyes, just move its location. This is an approach to alleviating under-eye bags. It is characterized by not incising the orbicularis oculi muscle (the muscle that closes the eye). ✔ Considered in these cases When soft tissue and muscle tone are well maintained If there is little sagging of the skin under the eyes ⚠ Cases requiring attention If the eye area is already sunken → Over time, the sunken area above the eyes may become more prominent after fat redistribution. If the mid-face volume is originally good → When only the fat is moved/removed, the boundary may be more emphasized. A face shape with a prominent cheekbone and furrows → The rearrangement may actually feel unnatural. 📦 Summary This is a surgery that is carefully considered in “a relatively early stage when the tissue elasticity is good and there is no sagging.” Lower eyelid plastic surgery ✔ Definition Make an incision under the eyelashes This is a surgery that removes fat under the eyes and corrects sagging skin. ✔ Principle Sagging and fat problems concentrated under the eyes are corrected within the lower eyelid area. It treats skin, fat, and supporting structures simultaneously. ✔ Considered in these cases The skin under the eyes is stretched, but If mid-face sagging is not severe ⚠ Limitations If the boundary between the lower eyelid and the midface itself has descended, → Even if only the lower eyelid is corrected, the change in youthfulness may be limited. In cases where midface changes are significant, single surgery may not be recommended. 📦 Summary Suitable for “those with sagging under the eyes but no significant changes in the mid-face.” Midfacial lower eyelid lift ✔ Definition Expand the lower eyelid incision to access the midface. This is a surgery that lifts the mid-face fat layer upwards along with fat treatment. ✔ Principle It's not just about cleaning up the under-eye area, Lower eyelid – An approach that lifts the mid-face border upward. ✔ Considered in these cases When the border between the lower eyelid and midface is significantly lowered Cases of revision surgery that did not leave a youthful appearance even after previous under-eye surgery In cases where mid-face sagging occurs quickly due to contouring surgery, etc. When accompanied by ectropion (inversion of the eyelid) ⚠ Considerations Together Simply lifting the sagging structure may not be enough. → A complex approach, including space supplementation and muscle support, is discussed. 📦 Summary This is an extended surgery considered in cases where “there is a clear change in the boundary between the lower eyelid and mid-face.” Complex Aging: Why Is It So Difficult to Make Simple Choices? Just because the midface is sagging, it doesn't mean that it can be solved with just a facelift. If you don't consider the space and support issues that arise while lifting, The results may be awkward. So in reality Adjusting the location of the province Mid-face elevation Orbicularis oculi muscle support Approaches to combining the backs according to the condition are discussed. Summary at a glance division Core criteria Under-eye fat repositioning Initial state with good elasticity and no sagging Lower eyelid surgery Focused on sagging under the eyes, little change in the mid-face Midface lower eyelid lift Accompanied by sagging margins, reoperation, and midface deformation Final Guide These three surgeries are not a matter of superiority or inferiority, but rather a matter of ‘differences in indications.’ When looking at under eye problems Bulging → Off → Border → Looking at the midface together It is important to understand which approach is right for your situation.

Forehead filler If done well, the entire face will look soft and luxurious. no see. On the contrary, if the design, capacity, and angle checks are insufficient, it can result in problems such as 'dolphin forehead', 'bumpiness', and 'sliminess'. It may feel unnatural. So, when it comes to forehead filler, how it is designed and what criteria are used is more important than how much is injected. Forehead Fillers: Why Should You Be Careful? The forehead is the 'central area' of the face. The forehead About 1/5 of the face area It is a large area that occupies . Not only the front 45 degree, 90 degree side In order to be perceived as ‘pretty’, everything must be natural. Typical reasons for dissatisfaction At a specific angle or lighting If shadows appear and make it look bumpy Fill in only part If the border is prominent The key is The overall flow is smooth no see. Key principles for creating a natural forehead ✔ The design standard is 'egg-shaped forehead' The goal is not simply a convex forehead. An egg-shaped line that flows smoothly without any bumps ✔ Multi-angle check is essential During the procedure, the following is repeatedly checked. Front / 45 degrees / Side Lying down → standing up again Depending on the lighting Make sure there are no areas that appear to be off Going through this process can help reduce the feeling of “something is wrong” after the swelling goes down. Forehead width may vary depending on the design Why Your Forehead Looks Wide or Narrow The standard is Convexity of the frontal bone This point Hold it up or down According to → The area that the light reaches changes → It feels like your forehead looks wide or narrow. Design direction by face shape If you have a wide forehead → Designed to let the light flow upwards, making it look relatively narrow. If you have a narrow forehead → Consideration of reducing the feeling of stuffiness by naturally connecting to the upper part Even though it's the same forehead Depending on the design, the impression may vary. Clearing Up Misconceptions About Forehead Filler Key points about filler movement Forehead fillers are usually injected **on the bone (above the periosteum)**. Due to the structure of the eyebrow bone and fibrous tissue It is very difficult for filler to flow out to the wrong place. The true nature of the 'swollen body' photos seen on the Internet Most of them Swelling, not filler movement After the procedure, the peeling process + osmosis phenomenon Day 2-3: May appear more plump About a week later: gradually subsides There is no need to worry too much about “going down.” Appropriate dosage: Why is 'less' more of a problem? Common misconceptions “Wouldn’t 2cc be enough?” A problem that many people actually experience The forehead has a large surface area If the capacity is insufficient, it tends to look bumpy. If you fill in only part of it → temples and hairline You may feel a step difference What's important is Not a set cc, but the degree of sunkenness on my face no see. Why does it feel 'mushy' when pressed? Causes of squelching In a specific area If the filler is too thick On a broad forehead If it is not laid evenly Things to know Fillers are not prosthetics. The feeling of being pressed a little and then returning is within the normal range. but If it goes in and comes back out even if you press it lightly → Readjustment may be necessary Layer selection + distributed placement is key. Korean and Chinese Forehead Trends: These Differences 🇰🇷 Preferred forehead in Korea Overall round shape Not too much volume An impression that makes the face look slim 🇨🇳 Preferred forehead in China than the middle volume Emphasize the brow bone line Structures that are clearly visible under certain lighting angles Recently A design that adapts Chinese style elements to the Korean face shape. It's gradually becoming popular. Summary: Forehead Filler: Check This Before Deciding 🧾 Forehead Filler Checklist ✔ Not a partial procedure Is it a full flow design? ✔ Front, side, and lighting Check from various angles ✔ Fits my face Explain the capacity criteria ✔ About the swelling and change process Have you been informed in advance? ✔ Not just simple volume Do you look at the entire face shape? Forehead filler is not a “treatment that makes you pretty” “It is a procedure where the results vary depending on how it is administered.” I fully understand and it fits my face. The process of careful judgment itself is the most important.

Facelifts are actually one of the procedures where the most 궁금한 (curious) aspect is when and to what extent sagging occurs. In particular, the concern “Why do I look like I’m sagging so quickly?” is mostly Patient factors + surgical factors interact in combination This is the result. I have compiled the following information regarding facelift surgery that you may be curious about. The key reason for re-sagging Most stable pull level (80~90%) The adverse effect of excessive pulling 3 Factors Causing Facelift Effects to Sag Quickly ▶ ① Changes in facial heaviness and skin elasticity Face weight and skin elasticity vary from person to person. Frequent injections into the face after surgery can increase weight and accelerate sagging. ▶ ② Changes in health status If facial fat decreases due to deteriorating health, the loss of volume can make it look like sagging. ▶ ③ Doctor's 'excessive pulling' The expectation that “the harder you pull, the longer it lasts” actually backfires 100% tension that does not account for natural movement may cause the middle to become loose or uneven. Both patient and doctor factors work together, and the duration of maintenance varies from person to person, making it difficult to make a uniform judgment. Why is the most appropriate tension level '80~90%'? ✔ A range that ensures both naturalness and longevity If you pull too hard (100%), it is taut at first, but over time, rather Loosening of the center or an awkward expression This could be A pull with about 80~90% leeway It is a realistic choice that takes facial movements into account. To easily understand the principle, let's think about the elasticity of a rubber band! 📌 When a loose rubber band is pulled 80–90% It still retains its elasticity, so it can maintain its shape even when moved. 📌 When the rubber band is pulled 100% It has almost lost its elasticity, so it may loosen or stretch immediately if moved. Since the face is also a constantly moving tissue, excessive tension can be disadvantageous in the long run. Precautions to Minimize Re-sagging ✔ 1) Beware of factors contributing to facial weight gain Frequent injection of substances into the face after a procedure leads to increased weight → increased risk of sagging ✔ 2) Volume decrease due to weight change If you lose weight in your cheeks due to deteriorating health or other factors, they may appear saggy. ✔ 3) Avoid excessive pulling demands Saying “Please pull harder” can ultimately reduce both the natural look and the duration of the effect. It is difficult to simply say that the effects of a facelift last for 'a few years'. The patient's skin condition, weight, changes in health, and the degree of tension during surgery all work together. The two most important principles are as follows. 80–90% tension is the most appropriate range for both naturalness and retention. Patient factors (weight, elasticity, health) and excessive pulling are the main causes of re-sagging.

When many people consider facial contouring surgery, there is something they worry about as much as the results. Used during the recovery process immediately after surgery blood bag (drainage tube) It's a question of whether it's really necessary and worth the inconvenience. In particular, the mere thought of having a drainage tube placed on the face can feel burdensome, and the question naturally arises, “Why don’t I just not use it?” However, facial contouring is not simply a procedure that tightens the skin. Surgery that reaches the subcutaneous layer, tissue, and fibrous layer called SMAS Therefore, how well the tissues attach and stably position themselves becomes a very important factor in the recovery process. At this time, the blood bag is not simply a tool for draining blood, but rather plays a role in creating a more stable recovery environment. Why you need a blood bag It can be explained broadly in two ways. First, in the early stages after surgery, there is a temporary separation between the skin and tissue. If fluid or blood collects in this space during healing, it may interfere with the adhesion process. Second, fluid retention in the face can cause swelling, which can slow healing and increase discomfort. For this reason, it is recommended to avoid facial swelling for a period of time. The function of creating negative pressure from the outside to seal the tissue and drain accumulated fluid This may help. of course Approaches vary You can do it. ✔️ A method that helps maintain stable adhesion by maintaining it for a certain period of time without removing it immediately. ✔️ Method of adjusting the period according to the patient's bleeding and fluid status ✔️ In some situations, a minimal approach is taken based on the medical staff's judgment. There are several options available, each with its own pros and cons, depending on your recovery speed, comfort, and individual circumstances. So what’s more important is not the assertion that “everything must be the same”, ✨ In what cases is it helpful? ✨ In what state does it become more important? ✨ Do I need it? It is judged based on this. If the surgical scope is wide and there is a lot of dissection (the process of separating tissue), and if there is a high possibility of bleeding, In situations where fluid retention is a concern, a blood bag is likely to play a significant role in stabilizing recovery. Conversely, if there is less tissue damage and a lower risk of bleeding, the method or duration of application may vary. So, what is more important than whether you use it or not is, 📌 My facial structure and surgical scope 📌 Bleeding risk and recovery characteristics 📌 Possibility of fluid accumulation 📌 The need to prevent complications during recovery It is a comprehensive judgment. In the end, the blood bag is not an unnecessary device, but rather Assistive devices to help tissues heal and reduce excessive swelling or fluid retention during the recovery process. It is much more realistic to understand it as . [Comparison Table] item When using a blood bag If you do not use a blood bag How it works Using negative pressure to help drain body fluids and blood and seal tissues Rely on the body's natural healing process Expected effect Helps reduce swelling and improves tissue adhesion stability No device inconvenience, reduced management burden Suitable situation When the area of peeling is wide, there is a risk of fluid accumulation. When the risk of bleeding is low and the surgical scope is limited maximum Discomfort, needs management Additional measures may be necessary if fluid builds up. Among the below If 3 or more apply , we may consider using blood bags more actively. ✔️ The surgical scope is relatively wide across the entire face. ✔️ I was told that the range of tissue detachment was large. ✔️ I have a constitution that usually gets bruises and swelling a lot. ✔️ I was informed about the possibility of bleeding ✔️ I want to prioritize stability a little more in the early stages of recovery. FAQ Q. Doesn't the blood bag make recovery more difficult? Although it can often be uncomfortable, it can sometimes be helpful in terms of recovery stability, so it is often a decision that is carefully considered depending on the situation. Q. Can we say that it is absolutely necessary for everyone? Because the judgment may vary depending on the surgical method, individual condition, and possibility of bleeding, it is recommended to review the conditions together with the medical staff rather than making a blanket decision.

Semi-colossus silver An intermediate step between full facelift and mini facelift It's easier to understand it this way. It's easy to think, "It must be easier since the surgical scope has been reduced a little." In reality, it is a surgery where the results vary greatly depending on the facial condition and goals, so it needs to be viewed a little more carefully. As we age, sagging of the face does not occur in just one spot, but usually Nasolabial folds, corners of the mouth, jawline It often appears divided into directions. The semi-colossus is especially When wrinkles on the nasolabial folds and sagging around the corners of the mouth are noticeable It means a lot. If sagging under the jawline is not severe → A semi-lift can be considered If sagging under the chin is the main problem → The effect of the semi-lift is limited The more sagging the corners of the mouth and the center of the nasolabial folds are, the higher the satisfaction level. That is, rather than “whole face/specific part” This is a surgery that is based on ‘what is more concerning’. In what cases will it be helpful? A semi-colossal statue can be helpful in these situations. When the wrinkles on your forehead appear deep When sagging around the mouth also appears When sagging under the jawline is not severe but, If sagging under the chin is the main problem, a half-lift alone may not be satisfactory. In the end, it is not the choice of the semi-giant that is important, Does it suit my facial condition? is more important. The surgical/procedure methods are different like this. The semi-colossus Usually, an incision is made from the inside of the hairline to the front of the ear. It's progressing. It's not just about pulling the skin Pull up and fix the SMAS layer (support layer under the skin) together It is different from a simple ‘outward pull’ in that it is a method of doing so. Even though the incision range may seem short, The surgical field of view is narrow, Delicate work is required 👉 That’s why there are many stories saying that it’s difficult to see it as an “easier surgery.” The semi-colossus Lighter alternative surgery options Not this, ✔ Location of sagging on my face ✔ Which area and how much do you want to improve? It is a choice that only makes sense if you judge it based on this. Don't just look at the cost Don't just look at the recovery period 👉 “Where and how do I want to change?” If this is sorted out first, it will be much less shaky. Ultimately, the choice will depend on your personal circumstances and goals, so I think it would be best to take your time comparing options and find the direction that's right for you!

hello, Director Baek In-soo of Garnet Plastic Surgery no see. As we age, there are times when the face in the mirror feels unfamiliar. Compared to before. The jawline becomes blurry There are times when your whole face looks slumped down, making your impression feel heavy. “Is it okay to have surgery at this age?” "Isn't it too late?" The concern that follows naturally also follows. Facelift surgery, one of the options considered at this time, is not so much a surgery that creates a 'drastically changed face,' but rather, The process of tidying up the structure disrupted by sagging to create a more comfortable and natural impression. It is close to. In this article, the most important aspects addressed in actual clinical practice Safety, Effectiveness, and Realistic Selection Criteria I will calmly organize the following, focusing on... What is a facelift? 🟢 A facelift is not a surgery that merely pulls the outer skin, but rather a surgery that stably reorganizes the facial structure upward. A facelift supports the face along with the skin that naturally sags with age. Cleans up to the fascia layer as well. Therefore, it is a surgery that smooths out the overall contour. Simply “pulling hard” is not the key. A change that blends in naturally Organizing the structure to create it is important. The goal is not to 'not look drastically old' Restoring a neat impression If you prioritize a natural-looking result, rather than 'how much you pull' How to rearrange the facial structure in a balanced way I need counseling that focuses on [that]. What changes can you expect from a facelift? 🟢 The key is a “tidy and comfortable impression” rather than a dramatic transformation. After a facelift, the blurred jawline, sagging cheeks, and collapsed contours are refined, and The tired-looking impression has become much more relaxed and stable. It often changes to. Face lines are refined Alleviating the heavy impression caused by sagging You can expect a naturally polished, youthful look. What if you are worried about pain, recovery, or side effects? It is important to ensure a gradual recovery and avoid unreasonable surgical plans. Tightness, swelling, and bruising may occur after surgery, but they usually subside over time. In general, it is often possible to return to daily life after 2 to 3 weeks. However, the important point is, Excessive pulling Excessively large surgical scope In such cases It can lead to unnatural results , Plan tailored to individual conditions This is more important than anything else. Please make sure to check together: “Is it a safely planned surgery?” and “Is the scope considered in terms of my skin and lifestyle?” Who is it suitable for, and in what cases should one be cautious? The key is to consider both the current situation and the living environment together. ✔️ Suitable for these cases When sagging skin makes the impression look heavy and blurry Cases where satisfaction is low with simple procedures alone Middle-aged and older adults who want to stabilize their overall facial lines ⚠️ Be cautious in such cases When it is difficult to manage overall health If you expect dramatic changes in the short term An environment where it is difficult to secure sufficient recovery time What are the important criteria you must know before a facelift? 🟢 Judging based on realistic goal setting + natural results Facelift surgery is more about “how much it was pulled” than Whether it fits naturally even after time passes is more important. Rather than making big changes all at once In the current state, to the required range It is advisable to approach this in a step-by-step and safe manner. Rather than making decisions based solely on trends and costs, My current condition + changes in expectations + realistic possibility of recovery It is wisest to look at these three things together. FAQ Q1. Is the effect really significant? A1. Rather than a “face that looks much younger,” Organizing the disorganized structure to transform into a comfortable and tidy impression The key is doing it. Q2. How long does it last? A2. Generally, we advise that it lasts for about 5 to 10 years. However, this can vary depending on individual skin condition, aging rate, and lifestyle habits, so it is recommended to discuss a realistic range of expectations during the consultation. Q3. The cost is a burden. Can I choose based solely on the cost? A3. Costs vary significantly depending on the scope, method, and safety plan of the surgery. Rather than choosing based solely on affordability, Is the cost included in a plan tailored to the facial condition? is more important. Conclusion ✨ Facelift surgery is not a “surgery that changes the face,” but, A choice that stably restores a facial structure disrupted by sagging. no see. Since the effects last for a relatively long time, it is not a surgery that can be recommended to everyone, ✔️ Current status ✔️ Health conditions ✔️ Expected changes A cautious approach that considers these three factors together is required. The more you determine the scope and method that suits you through sufficient consultation, the higher your satisfaction will be. Please keep in mind that this is a medical process to be understood and chosen, not a matter of making a hasty decision!

Recovery management can be broadly divided into the following ways: 1️⃣ Control swelling by focusing on cold compresses 2️⃣ Using protective bands and support bands 3️⃣ Protecting the sutured area with ointment and hygiene management 4️⃣ Maintain a recovery routine that doesn't overwork you All four of these management factors are helpful. But it's not the concept of "doing everything to the maximum is good." Each one is Management that must balance effectiveness and burden Therefore, adjustments are needed to suit individual conditions. ⚖️ Characteristics and limitations of each management method ❄️ cold compress may help relieve fever and swelling, ➡️ If it is too cold or too long, it can be a burden. 🩹 Protective band It provides stability and reduces movement, but ➡️ It is important to use it as a “supportive” concept, as excessive tightening can cause discomfort. 💊 Ointment and hygiene help protect the suture site, ➡️ It is best to avoid using more products than necessary. 🏃 It is recommended to avoid strenuous activities such as rapid exercise, hot steam baths, and saunas in the beginning stages of your daily routine. 🧭 So, this is the most realistic way to understand it. The process of deciding on 'what to focus on, how intensely, and at what speed to apply' the above four management methods according to my current condition. It is more accurate to view it like this. 📌 Directions that are commonly applied In the beginning ✔️ Reduce unnecessary stimulation ✔️ Focus on basic care centered on cold compresses, protection, and hygiene In many cases, this is a relatively low-risk option. ☑️ My status check criteria The criteria below will help you determine your current recovery path. ✔️ Are you still concerned about the swelling and bruising that is noticeable? ✔️ Does the suture area feel sensitive or unstable? ✔️ Do you feel burdened by suddenly increasing your activities? ✔️ Do you often wonder, “Is this behavior stimulating?” Considering these criteria together, You can understand and manage the early recovery process after facial contouring surgery with more certainty. FAQ Q. When can I shower after facial contouring? A. If you do not rub the sutured area too hard, you can often wash your face lightly relatively quickly. However, this may vary depending on your individual condition, so it is safer to check with a medical professional. Q. When can I start using hot packs? A.

hello, 3D Plastic Surgery at surgery during doing Director Heo Jae-won, a board-certified plastic surgeon no see. There is a phrase I hear most often in the doctor's office these days. I've been getting thread lifts every one or two years, but now it seems like they have almost no effect. And the question that follows, “I have had thread lifts multiple times; is a facelift still possible?” If you have undergone repeated thread lifting, you will face this dilemma at least once. today Why a facelift can become more complicated after a thread lift cast, Cases confirmed in actual clinical practice and international academic journals Aesthetic Plastic Surgery published in (2025) Dr. Yordan P. Yordanov's Research paper I will explain focusing on... 1. What type of lifting procedure is thread lifting? 🎯 Thread lifting is It is a non-surgical lifting procedure that physically pulls the skin using threads beneath the skin. 🔹 Thread lifting involves inserting absorbable threads under the skin. A method that pulls up sagging areas no see. 🔹 You may feel that your jawline or nasolabial folds have lifted immediately after the procedure. Immediate change I feel that this is an advantage. The reason for choosing thread lifting usually starts with the following. “ Major surgery is a burden When you want just a light lift “ Whenever I feel my face sagging Cases where non-surgical methods are repeatedly selected 2. Why do changes occur in internal tissues with repeated thread lifting? 🎯Thread lifting Even after the thread is gone, traces of the tissue can remain. 🔸 Absorbable threads (PDO, PLLA, PCL, etc.) used in thread lifting dissolve over time. 🔸 However, in this process Stimulates collagen production It becomes, and that position Fibrotic tissue It can be changed to. 👉 How these changes actually manifest has been confirmed through research. Dr. Yordanov during 2021–2023 History of receiving thread lifting On 10 patients (average age 59) with Facelift surgery We directly observed the internal tissue condition while performing the procedure. in result, The following common changes were identified in all patients. ✔️ The area where the thread was inserted hardening ✔️ Skin, subcutaneous fat, and SMAS layer Adhesion that sticks together ✔️ Anatomically important layer Reduced mobility ✔️ Increase in surgery time : Difficult to peel off skin layer and increased bleeding in other words, Even if the thread melts, organizational change can remain. The key point is this. 3. How do these tissue changes affect facelift surgery? 🎯 The surgical process may become more difficult. 🔹 Facelift surgery involves the process of dissecting and trimming the tissue beneath the skin. However, after thread lifting In cases where fibrosis or adhesions are present , → Organizational separation becomes difficult and → Anatomical differentiation may become difficult during surgery. ✨ A point commonly confirmed in research papers is, “ Thread lifting is Changes that remain in an organization last longer than temporary effects. .” “ thread lifting After Facelift is It becomes much more anatomically complex. .” in other words , repetitive thread lifting silver Later surgery Making it difficult 'viewless evidence' second It means leaving something behind. . 4. In that case, is a facelift impossible if I have had a thread lift? 🎯 That is not the case. However, 'information sharing' is important. ✔️ Just because you have had thread lifting multiple times It is not impossible to have a facelift. ✔️ I also frequently encounter patients who undergo surgery after thread lifting while primarily performing facelifts. It is very rare for someone to choose a facelift from the start without ever having tried thread lifting. Looking at actual surgical cases, traces of previously inserted lifting threads are visible in 1 out of 3 cases. However, Information that must be provided before surgery There is. 🔸 Timing of the procedure 🔸 Treatment area 🔸 Types of yarn used 🔸 Number of treatments ⚠️ You need this information, → Avoid unexpected adhesions during surgery and → See Safe surgery plan You can set it up. 5. How does thread lifting compare to other procedures? 🎯 Not all procedures have the same effect. 🔹 From a clinical perspective, Collagen stimulants (Juvelux, etc.) Fat grafting and liposuction Specific volume control procedures (AccuSculp, etc.) In some cases, this actually makes the surgery more complicated. ✨ Compared to this, The traces of lifting threads are relatively easy to clean up. There are also many cases that fall under this category. What matters is not 'what procedure was performed,' but 'how accurately it is shared with the medical staff.' FAQ ❓ Q1. What causes the effects of thread lifting to wear off quickly? A1. Since thread lifting is not a surgery that fundamentally rearranges the structure, the lifting effect may diminish over time. In some cases, the perceived effect may last longer when combined with other procedures. Q2. I am considering a face lift. Which would be the better choice, thread lifting or a facelift? A2. It depends on the degree of sagging and the expected results. Non-surgical methods may be considered more suitable for mild sagging, while surgical methods may be more appropriate for moderate to severe sagging. Q3.

As we age, many people worry that their facial lines suddenly look blurry or their cheeks feel sagging.

There are times when you do it. especially Under the clown Sagging cheeks, nasolabial folds, and sagging jawline like structural change If it happens, It is difficult to achieve the desired improvement through simple skin care alone. This change What is the cause , and In what situations is facelift surgery considered? I'll organize it . root cause ✔ The fundamental cause of a sagging face is changes in the SMAS layer. The face is made up of several layers: “skin-fat-SMAS layer-muscle.” Among these SMAS layer silver " "Its role is to transmit muscle movements to the skin and maintain facial contours." . But as you get older The elasticity of the smart layer is weakening Become vulnerable to gravity The skin and cheeks begin to move downward. in other words, Management that only tightens the outer skin has its limitations. The reason why there is is right here. Treatment Options ✔ Option 1) Skin care, laser, thread lifting There is almost no recovery period May help with mild sagging and loss of elasticity But if it is transformed to the smart layer, Short duration of effect or difficulty in achieving sufficient lifting . ✔ Option 2) Facial lifting (including SMAS layer lifting) By directly pulling the smart layer, Rather than a simple skin tightening procedure, An approach that fundamentally addresses the cause of sagging no see. The surgical procedure usually proceeds as follows: Diagnosis of facial lines and sagging areas Incision in less visible areas such as the hairline and around the ears Separate the sagging tissue and pull and fix the SMAS layer. Clean up the remaining skin and suture it The extent of the incision varies depending on the individual's condition. Scars are often placed in relatively inconspicuous locations, such as the hairline or around the ears. Important point! Rather than saying that any method is “unconditionally better,” the choice depends on the depth, extent, and condition of the SMAS layer of the face. division Skin Care/Laser/Thread Lifting facelift Site of action Focus on skin and fat layer Including SMAS layer If appropriate For moderate to severe sagging / when a short recovery is desired Moderate to deep sagging cheeks and deep wrinkles Maintenance period relatively short Keep relatively long recovery process Almost none or short Incision and sutures are required, including recovery. Expected effect Elasticity/Micro Lifting Structural changes such as improved facial lines and wrinkle reduction Checklist Among the items below 3 or more If applicable, Laser or thread lifting alone may not be enough to achieve sufficient improvement. The wrinkles on my forehead have deepened and become more pronounced recently. My jawline looks more blurred than before The ball under the eye is slanted downwards, creating a shadow. Laser and thread lifting effects fade quickly If you take a picture from the front, your face will look pulled down. One side sags more and the asymmetry becomes more severe. Conversely, if you fall into the below category, the 'Management/Laser Stage' may be more appropriate. Concerned about fine wrinkles around the eyes and mouth Prefer short recovery Concerned about skin texture and elasticity rather than overall sagging FAQ Q1. How long does facial contouring surgery last? A1. The maintenance period varies depending on the individual's skin thickness, lifestyle, and aging rate. This does not mean that the results of the surgery are permanent, and natural aging will continue in the future. Q2. Are the scars noticeable? A2. Incisions are usually made in relatively hidden locations, such as the hairline or around the ears. The extent of scarring may vary depending on the individual's skin type and recovery status. Facial sagging is not just a skin problem. Changes in facial structure It is a process that occurs together. What stage of change am I at now, is management sufficient, or does a surgical approach become necessary? Standards by which you can judge for yourself It is important to know. I hope this summary will serve as a small reference point for your choice. 👉Medical information may be applied differently depending on individual conditions, so it is safe to confirm an accurate judgment through consultation with a specialist. *In the text, it was introduced as a surgical approach, face-lift surgery, but at a hospital event Non-surgical facelift Please refer to this too!
